Question

which of the following best describes XWO A. Angle bisectorB. MedianC. AltitudeD. Perpendicular bisector15W15Z

Answer 1

INFORMATION:

We have the next triangle

And we must select the answer that best describes XW segment

STEP BY STEP EXPLANATION:

We can see that XW segment divides the YZ side into two equal parts, which measure 15 units. And we can also see that the XW segment starts in one of the vertex of the triangles and goes to the opposite side.

Then, we can analyze the definition for the median of a triangle

Finally, if we compare, we can see that the definition of median describes the XW segment.

ANSWER:

B. Median.
